As if I were God















I made midnight mythologies
For my heavy eyed children
As if I were God
Had burn marks and crooked nail tips
When I braved the kitchen fires
As if I were God
The domestic omniscience
That household omnipotence
As if I were God
The unseen resevoir of compulsive love
Yet my love ‘dare’ not ask for any love
As if I were God
I say, “Forgive them lord for they know not….”
But they know it all, still I cry
As if I were God
I wait for the bliss all my life
N I was told to see bliss in others’ smiles
As if I were God
I was the unseen guiding light
In the victories of sons and lovers
As if I were God
From the land of my father to son
I wander in my own dreary mid-heavens
As if I were God
But when the world saw me
In my beauty
In their distanced blindness
For once they had sighed.. “eh.. Goddess”!!!
